i cant turn on anti-aliasing. wtf

[imported_Field]

is there something wierd you have to do in order to turn on any form of AA?

for some reason the game is not letting me turn AA on even though i can adjust everything else. help? the game looks very rank the way i am seeing it right now

nevermind i got it. what i had to do was just go into my gpu control panel (HD4870) and uncheck "use application settings" and then just manually set it to use 4xAA which is as much as i would care to have, then it let me set it to 4x in-game

Go to My Documents or:
C:\Users\Evant3k\Documents\Battlefield 2\Profiles\0001
Obviously your user is not called Evant3k unless you love me.

Find the file named Video or Video.con

Open it with a text editor NotePad ect

VideoSettings.setTerrainQuality 4
VideoSettings.setGeometryQuality 4
VideoSettings.setLightingQuality 1
VideoSettings.setDynamicLightingQuality 0
VideoSettings.setDynamicShadowsQuality 0
VideoSettings.setEffectsQuality 4
VideoSettings.setTextureQuality 4
VideoSettings.setTextureFilteringQuality 4
VideoSettings.setResolution 1600x1200@60Hz
VideoSettings.setAntialiasing 8Samples
VideoSettings.setViewDistanceScale 1
VideoSettings.setVideoOptionScheme 4

Set Anti Aliasing to 8samples and ti should work. I would also recommend right clicking on the file > properties and make the file "read only" so the game can't make any changes to it.

I also have a HD4870.
